@Darkbeldin Both VMs are set to this.

@Darkbeldin where would that option be in 2019 Server?

@Darkbeldin Good question, would having that enabled be a problem?

Hi folks,

I have two Domain Controllers running in a Ha Cluster DC01 & DC02 however I have a problem, I keep getting a Bluescreen on Domain Controller 1 regarding to

ATTEMPTED WRITE TO READONLY MEMORY, What Failed
Ntfs.sys.

I am using the citrix-vm-tools-9.3.0 from Citrix,

Any ideas? DC02 is fine though no Blue Screen problems, I also have 2 more Windows Server 2019 VMs running but no issues just with DC01.

Regards

Jack.

@olivierlambert Could it be a possible feature request?

@olivierlambert I normally use lm-sensors for monitoring CPU and Ambient Temperature i'm wondering if it could be possible?

@olivierlambert Hi Olivier, thanks for the reply, after having a play i figured out how to setup the email alerts for CPU, RAM etc works great. Something I will ask you though, would it be possible to add a feature for temperature email notifications within the perf-alert plugin?

Keep up the good work XCP-ng is great

Hi folks, I'm loving XCP-ng but i am curious of how Email Notifications work because I configured the transport-email for backups etc but how do you get Alerts side of thing working? I don't see any option for?

@tsettle I have 3 R510s the two are in a Ha cluster for Hypervisors and the 3rd I use as a spare but I have not seen this something I will say though is sometimes UEFI booting is a bit funny.

Another thing to look into is a Network problem that can cause issues. But to me it sounds like it's hanging on a Unmount when powering down. Suggest to unmount then power down.

@olivierlambert

That is good XCP-ng not being affected, I guess time will tell

@olivierlambert

Hi Olivier,

What does this mean for XCP-ng? I guess as XCP-ng is opensource it will not be affected?

Thanks.

@janvanhumbeek how long did you run Memtest for? Can you run it for the same length of time to see if it locks up. Check for BIOS updates. From the Logs you have C States errors so looks like Power management is not working you may need a different Kernel.

@danp Okay that's great. I was just making sure.

Thanks for your reply.

@danp Hi,

Thanks for your reply. So im guessing the first backup is the full VM then rest is Delta VMs ?

Thanks.

Jack.

Hi,

Got a question about the Xen Orcestra Backups. I have enabled Delta backups to backup the SAN to another Storage however which is working great but i got a question. With Delta Backups do i have to manually backup the full VMs ? Lets say that my SAN dies and takes all the drives with it i will only have the small delta files or will i have the full VM Disks ?

Thanks.

@olivierlambert Ok cool, iSCSI is on its own Network on a Direct connection with Multipathing. In the past i have had problems with VMs going in Read Only Mode.

Thanks for your reply.

Hi guys,

I have a quick question. In XO i have noticed that there is a option for Protect from accidental shutdown what is this protecting ? would this protect the VM so if the iSCSI Network goes offline the VM will not be damaged ?

Thanks.

Jack.

@olivierlambert

Just a update, I have moved from the Single Socket Server to the Dell R710 with 128GB of RAM successfully all VMs are working I have also updated to 8.2

@olivierlambert

Hi Olivier thanks for the quick reply. That is great was a bit worried due to the swap partition that Linux normally configured.

Cheers

Jack

Hi,

I have a quick question i have a Dell R710 im planning on upgrading to from my single socket E3 board due to memory limitations. When upgrading the Memory with XCP-ng installed is there anything else i need to change on XCP-ng?

Thanks.
